Shi Jie laughed freely: "Our objective as Clan Leaders is to guide our tribes towards a better future. But honestly, had I not visited the Watson Tribe, I wouldn't have conceived the idea of a tribe capable of such feats. I couldn't fathom how long it would take for our tribe to evolve into a powerful, influential entity like the Watson Tribe. I wonder if I would live long enough to witness such a transformation."
